The project showcases, in film, photos, and news stories how people in Southern Africa are positively addressing climate change. It offers a perspective of hope and ingenuity, providing local solutions that empower people to improve their lives through the protection of the natural resources the world depends on. It educates people about climate change while inspiring and encouraging them to make a difference in their own communities.

Creating A Climate For Change is created through a grant from the Open Society Initiative For Southern Africa and the Open Society Foundation For South Africa.

The film has won best environmental film at the Film Festival Of Colorado in June 2012.

The Talks, Exhibitions and Multimedia in Action

The project contains a strong multimedia element, with shorter films that work best on the web or web-enabled devices like iphones or tablets. These films are downloadable from the the award-winning news sites through the links at the bottom of this page. The film and photographs have been on tour with the producers throughout the world, engaging local audiences in venues like the University of Colorado in Boulder, The Labia Art Cinema in Cape Town, and community centers in Namibia.

At these special screenings the producers invite local stakeholders to join a panel after the film to lead a debate around the key messages of the movie and how they can be applied in other parts of the world. This creates local dialogues about how to address climate change and what effective partnerships are necessary to make this happen. The film and exhibition through these outreach efforts further the understanding that the solutions to climate change come from the concerted efforts of individuals, businesses, communities and governments joining forces to effect change.

Schools, Communities and Universities and any other interested parties can contact the producer for a screening of the film and a talk at their venue. More screenings are planned in Germany, South Africa, Namibia, and elsewhere.
